My life goals are pretty simple. In regards to the outdoors, I really don't have any big aspirations. I just want to take it as it comes, and would really like it if at least one of my 3 girls enjoys doing that stuff with me.

Other than that I want them to be successful in their lives, and get along with each other after they move out.

For me, my blood runs with muddy, weedy, cow-sh!t laden Chehalis river water. I hope that in my time I can make a positive difference on the watershed in some way, because most of my greatest outdoor memories have happened somewhere in that valley between the beach break at north jetty and Rainbow Falls campground.
